Back at it...

Well, it's a bit more difficult to just post something from work, as the stuff I'm working on is all top secret these days. (National security, sovereignty of the the motherland, queen and country...all that. Hrumph hrumph). I also just relocated to NYC and it's been a very busy time. So I'll have to start posting some other things I've been working on to make up for the time away from the blog.

This just in...a set of spots for a print campaign. Love these and hope they make a big splash!

Dragonadoodle

Just a little doodle of a family of dragons on the fly. I love the little goober that just is either ready of lunch or just plain ol' lazy. Hehe.

Tut tut - looks like rain, Pooh

A sneak preview of the opening shot to one of my favorite episodes of Pooh - (watch Pooh now on Disney TV!) One of the best things about working on the show is that because of the level of quality (and the amount of control over lighting and atmosphere) we were really able to approach the layout and storytelling with a strong cinematic style. This moment, when Pooh is sitting on his porch, eating honey and watching the rain, is one of my favorites that I did. Reminds me of home.

The new Moleskine

So I've be inspired lately to do some on-the-spot sketching; something I haven't done in a long time. As it happens, I have weekly dinner plans with friends, and so I'm trying to get there a little early so I have time to whip out an on site drawing. Each of these comes from waiting at my favorite restaurants here in LA. Malo, Allegria, Cafe'Angeli. Anyway, something different to post, if nothing else. And fun for me.

I Miss Saturday Mornings

Never seem to get that giant mixing bowl of Apple Jacks and my morning Cartoon fix anymore. sigh

Nothin but a bit of fun

A few minutes to myself listening to Amy Winehouse so I whipped this out. Just thought it's about time I posted a little somethin somethin.

Here I come to save the daaaaayyyyyyy!

This just in - a new campaign to save the Puget Sound. Did a bunch of board illustrations for spots so I thought I would share a few examples of the work:

"How Rude!"


I spent the weekend a few weeks back and whipped up a storyboard for a short! A very productive weekend indeed. Once I get it all assembled into an animatic, I'll post it for viewing (that'll be fun!), but for now, I've just got a few little images to 'vet your vissle' (It's my German short, starring two people who are vaguely inspired by my high-school Deutch teacher and her husband). (I'll post more images as I cut them apart for the animatic).

An new gig...Me and the Mouse

A quick posting to say that I am still alive, just very very busy. Started a new job at Disney on a preschool show called Mickey's Clubhouse. It's been an intense month, with a bit of a sidetrip to Mardi Gras in New Orleans (a must do for everyone) to recharge my batteries. As for Mickey, well I'm working with some of my favorite people, so there's nothing wrong with coming to work and seeing such great people everyday. I'm just having a little trouble getting the hang of the characters. What do you think? Am I getting close to being on model yet?
